UTTyler Webcam

See, I don't lie, another update:

The link in the title should take you to the school's construction webcam.
If it ever loads you will see the progress they have made

This is what I have accomplished in my first four sessions of 2325

Well okay so you can call me pathetic or just plain bored, but I don't care. I honestly have nothing better to do.
Well on the first day I show just how bored I was with paint:

I then thought well wouldn't it be funny if I threw something together with the whole Harry Carey theme from last year so I did.
I started out with this picture of Harry Carey:

Funny, HUH?
Anyway, I then made this little picture, but unfortunately couldn't find a picture of Whitson to put in it. (If you have a pic email me please):

I then thought how could I continue to be funny and humorous? I know I'll make a spoofed University ID Card and thanks to 1 minute in paint here it is:

Now this is funny.

Anyway, I am gonna find something else to do, will probably update again before end of class.

We're all boobs

I mean that literally and figuratively.

That is, we all have them, male or female, thin or fat. Sometimes you just can't see them.

However, more importantly, we all seem to live in a bubble. Sheltered. Kept away from the truth that sorrounds us. No I am not talking about religion, what do you think I am stupid? Instead I refer to the current situation w/ the hurricane, that is its aftermath.

IMHO, regardless of how much forewarning and preparedness we could have had, we would not be any better off. There still would be people that would not have evacuted. The levees would probably have still failed. Nothing would be happening any faster or more effeciently.

Why, you ask? I'll tell you.

People are inherently and by their very nature, STUPID!!!!
We have come to rely too much on the things we make for ourselves and don't realize how much we need them until they are gone. Then we instantly expect a quick fix, as though somehow everything is prepared for, which is such a horrible way to think. Humans are the most ill prepared people at everything that most other "animals" can do without any real issues.

Also, why do all the media outlets seem to be looking for a scapegoat? This is no one's fault. No one could have accounted for this happening. This is by far the stupidest thing the media could be doing right now. Also all people are doing right now is complain. Well guess what, It won't accomplish one god damned thing.

That's it, I've given my little speil.

Carpe Nocturn

You know, usually when someone says Carpe Nocturn, which I do think means Seize the Night, it makes one think great things. Instead I install programs on my PC, watch Law and Order SVU, order pizza, watch more tv, and fold clothes. I dunno, you know? I've lost my edge.

Anyway, have a great weekend everyone, I know I won't.

COSC 2325 Foundation of Computer Information Systems

I am now in my above mentioned class and bored to tears.

I still have 55 minutes to go.

Why does God hate me?

And more importantly, why won't they let me keep Firefox installed?

I mean seriously, no one is paying attention to this guy.

People are checking their email, chatting, shopping, blogging, and doing whatever they can to waste their time.

The kid in front of me put it best in his chat client: "class is boooooring."

He genuinely has no ability to motivate anyone, either that or he just doesn't care.

BTW, for outsiders, or as I shall refer to you the blessed ones, the man to which I am refering goes by the monicker of Whitson.

He is know for wearing the same thing all the time, among other things. Or it appears that way to us. We have affectionately nicknamed him Harry Carey.

I don't think I need to say any more, but I will.

I mean honestly being in Abu Ghraib would be more enjoyable right about now, maybe.

I will leave off by saying that at least this will all be over in less than 45 minutes now, good thing time progresses even when fun is not had.

Hear me spit on you, wither i
Remold into gold and bury I from - sun

Reborn left to sigh, recure maybe i?ll
Be born and simplify - the way I lie - before
I get bored, I get bored, I get bored I?m bored
Repent by you and trust to figure out
I burn that gift to you - doll and let it shine before
I get bored, I get bored, I get bored, I wish for a real one

Fit and confide, before me or i
I will come clean, it gets worse - it?s more
Get bored, I get bored, I get bored, a wish for a real one
Get bored, get bored, get bored, I wish for a real one

40 minutes now, yeah!! I should post this....

I am here....

I am now in my apartment at UT Tyler.....

Pretty much done w/ the packing and what have you....

This is going to be a good year, I hope....

It is good to be back....

Well, I will be sure to post more later....

Keep Yourself Alive

Well, NOW I REALLY LOATHE microsoft....

First I get a some error messages, then I can't log in anymore. In Fedora Core 4, I search for the error messages. Learn I can't do anything about that damn problem. Well other then reinstall the crap thing. Thankfully nothing of importance is ever on my C Drive.

Anyway...now I get this darn Windows Activation deal. Which I have done oh so many times before.

Anyway, apperantly I can't do web activation, really pisses me off. So I call Microsoft Tech Support "India", well that is where I assume the call went. So after the automated part of the call, I talk to this guy who I have to repeat everything to three times and then he wants to know why I am activiating again. So I said, because XP sucks and I had to reinstall it. After that he didn't say much beside that code they give you.

I hope this is the end of that....

I was told a million times
Of all the troubles in my way
How I had to keep on trying
Little better ev?ry day
But if I crossed a million rivers
And I rode a million miles
Then I?d still be where I started
Bread and butter for a smile
Well I sold a million mirrors
In a shop in alley way
But I never saw my face
In any window any day
Well they say your folks are telling you
To be a super star
But I tell you just be satisfied
To stay right where you are

Keep yourself alive keep yourself alive
It?ll take you all your time and a money
Honey you?ll survive

Well I?ve loved a million women
In a belladonic haze
And I ate a million dinners
Brought to me on silver trays
Give me ev?rything I need
To feed my body and my soul
And I?ll grow a little bigger
Maybe that can be my goal
I was told a million times
Of all the people in my way
How I had to keep on trying
And get better ev?ry day
But if I crossed a million rivers
And I rode a million miles
Then I?d still be where I started
Still be where I started

Keep yourself alive keep yourself alive
It?ll take you all your time and money honey
You?ll survive

Keep yourself alive
Keep yourself alive
It?ll take you all your time and money
To keep me satisfied
Do you think you?re better ev?ry day
No I just think I?m two steps nearer to my grave
Keep yourself alive
Keep yourself alive mm
You take your time and take your money
Keep yourself alive
Keep yourself alive
Keep yourself alive
All you people keep yourself alive
Keep yourself alive
Keep yourself alive
It?ll take you all your time and a money
To keep me satisfied
Keep yourself alive
Keep yourself alive
All you people keep yourself alive
Take you all your time and money honey
You will survive

Keep you satisfied
Keep you satisfied
